Shares - well you buy them when they are down. And if you are lucky, they can start moving up soon, and then you 'take profits' as my old broker Geoff Cambridge (a very old man, even when I first met him) would gratuitously say whenever sharing an elevator with a client.
If it's taking too long to do anything you 'pay the fare and get off;' another aphorism from the old days.

In the new thing out last week, mention is made of supply chains and logistics, and possible coming problems. This is bullish in the short term for the top-liners:
XPO Logistics - current price $117.94
Ryder Systems, Inc. - current price $67.25
Here's 'the new thing' - free to read version, a little cut down from the money version:
'NEW IDEAS AND SOLUTIONS FROM ADVANCED ET ALIENS'
Logistics, mysterious decadence, real ET Aliens...
So what's really new in the world, though, right?
What ever is really all that new - the Navajo said the Asanazi got wiped out when they mocked the gods, and the Hopi have a prophecy about the Star-children coming down here to teach us stuff and help us move forward and upward into the 'Fourth World' of existence.
How would good old Gordon Gekko have dealt with it?
See, he's pretty smart all the same, for all of the bad reputation that has been imputed to him, his character, over the years. And he knows you cannot just buy 'any old property,' any old 'real estate.'

| Banker's Trust building, Detroit. I used to have BT Funds stuff; were real good too. |
Today, if you wanted to buy the Banker's Trust building in the heart of Detroit City, you would hardly even have to come up with $2 million.
There's hints in the above linked free title. Of course you won't believe any of it. That is why you won't make any money, either.
Because it's all true, see.
So why don't you just relax here, right here, and think about dinner time, and your dinner companion or companions... ...and just wander around in our garden right here.
...And start to get used to the vibe. Because even the slightest tiny glimpse of it all, is going to be shocking after awhile, when it all sinks in.
Over the coming few articles, let me write a new 'Wall Street The Movie' for you - same characters, more or less. Same Gordo, more or less - different animal though.
Over the coming articles, and also maybe if you read through the whole free thing, linked above - because it is in three sections, the middle of which is extremely difficult to wade through - think about the future.
Prince said he'd seen the future - except he never made it to there. 'Systematic overthrow of the underclass, Hollywood conjures images of the past, new world needs spirituality that will last...' So said Prince, but then, he was a Jehovah's Witness!!
No. I'm a material realist now. We don't need no more 'spirituality.' We need 'materiality that lasts.' And that works, of course.

| Speak to me, Gordo. What are we eating tonight? Because, the eagles gather where the flesh is, right? |
I need - a supply chain system that works for me. And you need one that works for you.
Now, we'll get one.
Are there going to be bad things that happen? Sure. That's true all the time in human history anyway.
But let me frame it this way - the Human Race is the ultimate 'boy that cried wolf.'

ReplyDeleteWell let me tell you about the dream I had last night! It was something like (news flash style) "1000 people giving each other holy communion in notre dame." Well it was exactly that, but in the dream image they were all surrounded by a warm glow of light, and the concept was "finally people can be physically intimate again, truly a sign of the post-covid times." And there were huge orchestras of super skilled musicians performing mass *in the streets* and it sounded wonderful. Which is unusual because usually music performed outdoors sounds like crap, but this music reverberated inside me.
DeleteOh and when the musicians were done they went *back inside the church* Key detail there. Usually the musicians make a beeline to gtfo after their duties are done. These guys were kept inside.
DeleteThey say - the people who are dream experts, because I'm not one of those - anyway, they say that the important thing is the emotional sensations in the dreams that you have that maybe contain some kind of message from the subconscious or whatever.
DeletePerhaps in some of the up-coming articles we can look at going beyond the dream state - because personally I do think (and I'm not the only one who thinks this) dreams are reflections of so much that is going on HERE, in the surrounding population, the people we know, even those we don't know.
Actually I'd better attend to this right away because it's probably time to steer away from the 'standard stuff' and 'swim out a little further' into the really scary stuff.
Gulp.
